Advice on living and working in Brazil? (probably in Joao Pessoa and probably teaching english)?
I'm looking to escape the next english winter and stay with a friend in brazil so any tips about living or working in brazil would be greatly received. Paying my bills is obviously my number 1 priority and teaching english looks to be the easiet type of job to go for depite the fact i'm not a qualified teacher. The question is should i bother paying out ?900 smackers for a TEFL or CELTA teaching qualification as i might only be there for four to six months (i might stay longer if things go well) from what i can tell just being a native speaker might be enough to secure some kind of teaching work but nothings guarenteed . Or maybe just look for bar-work or deliver pizza's etc hehe anyway i think u get the idea before this gets too long :)
oh or maybe it's possible to get some kind of basic training in brazil? they are very poorly paid in Brazil,the amount you would spend on a TEFL would probably be equal to or about 2/3 months money . learn Portuguese (Brazilian) try any sort of work as long as your there. Good luck and enjoy.
